gpiv_piv2hdf converts ASCII-formattd PIV-data (filename.piv), derived data, like vorticities (filename.vor), strain (filename.sstr, file- name.nstr) and, eventually, raw data images (filename.r), to a HDF5 formatted file filename.hdf.

The parameters may be defined by the command line options as explained below. Options -e Exclude PIV data and data from post-processes. -h | --help On-line help. -i Includes image data. -p | --print Prints parameters, command line options and input and output filenames to stdout.
